A tandem won for the second time in succession, and there is no doubt that two people can overcome some of the problems a cyclist has juggling a map, question sheet and pencil. Still, a good ride from Julian and Millie. The top solo was closer this time, Michael Wood even finishing a few seconds ahead before a 3-minute cartographer's handicap was added. Steve had a good ride too, after he came back to get another bike.

On the feet, Steve Knowles was awarded the A course prize, after watching the clock to see whether last month's winner Chris Holden, starting late, would beat his time. The prize having been duly awarded, Chris duly turned up 39 seconds later!

In the B course Royce Johnston showed that wisdom can at least partially make up for lost youth, but there was not much in it. Even less between Peter Bakos and Anton Erasmuson. And in the C course Gary Williams looked as though he could have run another course, but the day belonged to the two juniors, Jonathan Huntingdon and Susan Lyon who turned in excellent times.

And Jason van Dyk, planner last time, is still fighting off a sickness, but shows that he knows the ropes. Thanks to the planner Philip Calvert and assistant Nic Gorman.
